I've been thinking of your book for weeks now as the antidote to "Eat Pray Love." Actually, the male, more earnest about getting enlightened, and more honest about what actually happens along the way, antidote. Put THAT in your ads! btw - total non-sequitor: Have you seen the "Dancing" video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlfKdbWwruY It is the single greatest thing I've seen in a long time. Very worth watching the whole 5 minutes. Also, check out a good summary of his story and how he found the woman who sings on the video: http://www.minnpost.com/stories/2008/06/27/2396/dancing_with_the_universe This is TOO funny!!

I was bored and uninterested in Italy. No, I probably I appreciated the India part so much because I've been to similar ashrams in india, and have met the teachers she was referring to, and it brought back the feeling of them to me.

I was trying to read something different from what I usually read: Buddhism and Judaism. The Italy section was nice, entertaining and brought really nice personal experiences. I'm now heading to the end of the India section. I've never been to an Ashram and am not familiar to Hindhuism. Also, I'm leaping some paragraphs of this part. Her report makes me feel bored and not interested.I don't think I'm getting a an approach that gets my attention. Let's see when I arrive in Indonesia! regina I was at Atlanta airport 2 weeks ago and bought this book. I was trying to read something different from what I usually read: Buddhism and Judaism.
